Stone Circle Back again...

Mara couldn't believe it, it really was Steady. Her heart was pounding out of his chest, for a second she wanted to tackle him again just out of excitement. Though the mood changed quickly to a more serious tone, he explained her oversight and she instantly felt guilty. The wolfess's ears lowered in apology. "Oh, I didn't mean to, really..." She insisted.

Mara followed the ebony wolf to more neutral ground, her muscles loosened once he spoke again, though she held apologetic eyes. "I was just roaming-Steady, I can't believe it's you," Her tail was still wagging by the time they began to talk, for a moment tears began to form, mostly out of relief that she wouldn't be killed that day, but also that she was staring directly at her once considered closest friend.
